Are all the Christmas cookies and sweets making you crave a little ruffage? All the rich holiday dinners and party food causing your body to beg for some wholesome veggies? Brussels sprouts to the rescue.

The inspiration for this recipe comes from Marlowe. Chef Jennifer Puccio's Crispy Brussels Sprout Chips with Meyer Lemon and Sea Salt were love at first sight. She separates the individual leaves of the Brussels sprouts, then flash-fries them to a delicate, light crisp. A spray of lemon juice, fragrant Meyer lemon zest, and sprinkle of sea salt are all that's needed to brighten up these "chips."

For my at-home remake version, I opted to roast the Brussels sprouts rather than fry them. A tip on separating the leaves -- I found that the easiest way to do so was to keep trimming the bottom stem as I peeled away the layers. This was the most time consuming part, but once it is done, the rest is a breeze.
Top the roasted Brussels sprout chips with some lemon zest and parmigiano, and this is one addictive snack! Salty, crispy, flavorful, and best of all, a healthy dose of vegetables 🙂

Cut each sprout in half. Remove loose leaves. Combine halves and leaves in a bowl and toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Place on a foil-lined baking sheet with the halved sides facing down.

Roast for 20-30 minutes or until outside of the Brussels sprouts are golden and crisp.

Gorgeous light on those brussels sprouts. I’ve actually never successfully cooked this vegetable, but I know I can like it because I’ve tasted some wonderful dishes elsewhere. Your dish looks easy yet flavorful. Definitely a must-try.
